i know that it is unlikly to get 2430 mah but will it be better than the stock battery?

The jesus battery
Take a search for ebay batteries and you'll find at best they are ok at best, at worst.....but who knows, buy em and if they are what they say they are then spread the word.

I'm gonna call bull to the "Gold Battery", seems a bit off if you ask me

Don't forget that we do have an inspire 4g accessories section where this type of stuff should be posted.
I got your 10 char right here

+1. There is no way the amount of space we have available for our batteries that you are going to get any more energy cells. Its all bull. The stock battery is the best you will get. If you suspect it is not performing its best, take it in to att and they will replace it if its gone bad prematurely.

It ships from asia. I dont buy anything that ships from asia cause you risk it being a fake. But here is a link on reviews of it from other users who purchased it.
http://www.htcdesirehdforum.com/htc...rnative-battery-2430mah-high-capacity-bas470/

The Anker 1600 mah battery is like $8? $9? On ebay. After batt calibration, this thing can go over 36 hrs running cm7. Mugen's are awesome too. Not all the batteries on there are bad, but as a general rule, stay away from anything shipping from Asia.

Still it is the wrong forum but as long as the topic is open....
+1 for the Anker 1600 batteries. Picked up 2 and a universal charger on ebay for about $15. Have only been using one of the batteries. But the difference is very noticeable over the HTC battery. Much better battery life. Installed Battery Monitor Widget to get some stats on the battery. Reported at 1480mAh. Don't know if the app is correct. HTC battery may have been starting to degrade already too which says alot of its quality. But the Anker battery so far for me has been out performing the HTC battery.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004XUNRRQ/ref=oh_o06_s00_i00_details bought those and they are great i easily get 2 days out of one battery, 20$ you get 2 1600mAh and a standalone charger, i think its a great deal!

Word is true!

I got the same thing and they work great much longer phone life than stock Bat

I'll have to look into this, however I'm worried about the battery door coming lose and causing the phone to shut off. Anyone have problems like that?

Looks fake to me. I bought an extended battery a few months ago to replace my stock battery. It was actually worse than the stock battery. I would bet that this is a standard capacity battery with a gold packaging to make it look even better.

I bought a refurb'd inspire 4g. My battery was faulty, like my phone kept shutting down randomly.
Then I got a battery from aftermarket, all is well.
Mine lasts 2 days with juice defender, without it, it's like 6 hrs.

Radio makes a lot of difference to battery life. Don't see how you can put an extended battery in an inspire casing... just saying..

You can't, but I've tried saying this in this thread before and people just don't want to hear it. The amount of space available for the inspire battery can not pack anymore energy cells. It's physics. Unless they have some new crazy technology that no one has heard of.

i believe they rated them very loosely to try make them sound better...

I used to say the same thing over and over. But my white laptopmate batteries are still kicking butt. Battery monitor rates them on average of 1475mAh. If you want to call that extended, I wouldn't. No it doesn't rate them 1600 like the packaging says. Whether that value is correct or not doesn't really matter to me. They work well and I believe better than the original. Our oem battery is chinese made too by the way.
And maybe these third party manufacturers do rate them loosely. Or maybe the oem batteries are rated very conservatively. I never had a chance to see what battery monitor rated my oem. But these 2 batteries and universal charger were worth every penny of the $15 I spent.

I learn that if turn off the wifi when you not use, will let unit run longer

Hey inspire owners, what do you think about the battery life?

I have read that battery life is horrible...what do you all think?
For the 24 hours plus I have had it, it is actually better than my Captivate was on any 2.2 ROM after proper recalibration, and at least on par with bone stock 2.1.1. I think HTC got it right with this one.
mine sucks so far. but im sure it needs to be "broken in" (here comes the debate about batteries not needing to be broken in)
Mine is decent, but then I plug it in the car charger as soon as i start driving so...
Mine is pretty decent as well... better than my Captivate was stock. The Inspire has a smaller battery as well (1230mAh I believe). So smaller battery with bettery battery life means HTC did something right to me
It's good so far. However, I got a 1600 mah from eBay and so far It's been great. I've been using it for 6 hours with constant use, full brightness and I still have more than half of battery left.

My battery life has been pretty decent. Havent had a full day yet to test it out.
That batt still fit in the phone without any mods? And are they smoking crack? 105 for the batt? I'll stay with my current one
Uhm? I paid $4.58. That's strange.
It isn't great right now but in the coming weeks the battery life will get better.

would u say better or worse then the Droidx, or an iphone4?
I have never used an iPhone 4 or Evo long enough to give you battery life. As for the Evo, probably close to the same actually. You see, the main reason that the Evo got the 1500 may battery is because of WiMax 4G. Plus the Inspire has more efficient technology, including the second generation snapdragon processor and the more efficient version of Sense, version 2.0

I think the battery life is great. MUCH better than what the bad reviews said it was.
With smart use (concious of wifi toggle, brightness toggle, gps toggle, account syncs...) the phone will easily last over a day. I use my phone a lot too, and I can't kill it in the day. It requires a little more attention than the iPhone 4, but the trade offs are worth it.
Full charge this morning. maybe 1 hour of web/email. 15 minutes of calls and stand by the rest of the time and I am at 2/3 at 4pm.
Not good not bad. Clearly for really busy times it will need a charge or a second battery (which I am planning to get).

I am guessing wrong price or a shill - are we sure the Desire HD battery will fit and function properly. If so why didnt HTC just use the 1500mA or 1600mA to start with?
It was actually $4.89. That's what I paid including shipping. I guess the seller got greedy. I copied that link from the confirmation email from eBay.

if anyone is willing to try, please let me know if they are rated correctly/safe.
i'm assuming they aren't.
I don't recommend buying any batteries online that claim to be replacements for the Inspire, but are much larger in mAh. They are likely fake, unsafe, or the same battery you have currently with a different mAh size that is untrue.

The one review seems to be quite thorough. Seems to work fairly well. Not really sure if its worth $30 though. I got 2 1600 mah batteries and a battery charger for $9. So for a third of the price I can swap batteries and get 3X the battery life. Only downside is having to carry the other batteries around.

Can you report back to us about the battery. How long it lasts....
i ordered the 1800 mah battery from amazon and got it in the mail yesterday, and I'm actually pretty disappointed. It almost seems to have the same life as the stock battery. Drains fairly quick. I'm thinking about preordering the 4500 mah one.
So I see no reads the forum before making a thread that already been made.... Come on ppl can't you read utilize the search button before posting?

Not all extended batteries are a "rip off", and besides, how could we know without testing them? I think it's fine that someone made a thread to report on a specific battery that they purchased so that the rest of us can have some information on it. Thanks OP.

I beg to differ. For many many years I was against aftermarket anything unless it was a case. I was given an extended battery for my g2 and it fried my phone. Almost killed my replacement. Never again will I get am products.

Will do. I'll see how it performs over a few days of my typical usage -- a few phone calls, lots of texting, internet and more internet, a few rounds of Wheel of Fortune, more internet lol.
Best case scenario would be a few hours more battery life. After all, the advertised capacity is only 20% more than the OEM battery.

A battery can't be judged by a single usage cycle. You have have to cycle it a couple of times for it to get in the groove of charging and discharging properly But with that said, you won't really see all that much of a difference from 1500 mAh to 1800 mAh. You might squeeze in an extra hour or two through a days use, but not much more then that sadly

Tested with a computer voltage logger over multiple discharge cycles.
No, the OPs battery was not tested, but since NOT ONE after market battery has EVER lived up to its marking, its clearly delusional to think this battery may just be the one thats legitimate.
It's a profitable game for them and buyers are naive and want to believe in the magic.
A rip-off is selling a product fraudulently, regardless if it still has value.
Specifically, a battery that tests to be less that 5% of its stamped rating is a fraud.

Informative chart. Thanks for the link. I've used aftermarket batteries for other phones and have had anywhere from decent performance to one that wouldn't even last 5 hours lol. Not expecting stellar results from this one either, but I got it for only $15 so if it gives even a decent day's usage then it will be worth the $15.
I've used it for about 2 days so far and its been holding up okay. Waiting to see if its gets any better after a few discharge/charge cycles before I really make up my mind about it.

1600mAh battery from Ebay

i bought there cheap batteries from Ebay (12$ for two)
i am surprised to find that they did last longer than the stock battery.
what a good deal
i am using LeeDroid GB3.30 rom,
using the "Battery Monitoring Widget"'s estimate
the battery will last seven days if left on idle status.

So you're saying that in testing through actual usage you've seen better results?
All conditions being the same, you've determined that the new battery gives you a longer amount of time between charges than the stock battery does?

yes, it last longer than the stock battery.
I bought three of these batteries, because they were like $1 each from China, and all of them are no different than the stock. Grab a tool and check the actual capacity and you will see that they are exactly the same spec as the OEM battery.
By the way, this is very old news. Did you search before posting? I didn't think so.

JK or not, he never did say it was an "internal" battery.
I bought one of these, isn't really 1600 but works good as a spare once my original dies completely.
I was thinking about buying a 1500 mah battery from ebay then I read a thread stating that the Inspire 4g stock battery lasted longer. The "Mah" rating is not industry regulated so basicly a manufacture can put 1600 mah on a battery thats 1100 mah without getting reprimanded or fined. So be carefull where you buy these batterys from and make sure the Co. is reputable first.

The technology itself is the cap. For this size this is the most juice you are going to get, unless they figure out a way to pack more energy cells into the same amount of space. Which they haven't. Don't be fooled. The battery that came with phone is the best available for this phone.

All that did is calibrate the battery. It's not going to hold any more juice than the space allows. It's physics. Until a new technology comes out...

hey let them completely discharge 3 times ( after it dies , wait about 5 minutes and power on the phone again let it power off)
don't let the battery charging over night . about a 3 hr and 30 mins to 4 hr will do.
i have a 1500 mA battery . it last me about a 1 with heavy use .( temple run , music , pandora , gps , text , photos , and reading )
Never try to let you batteries run completely dead. This will shorten the life of Li-Ion batteries. And feel free to let your batteries charge over night. When the battery gets charged fully the charging will stop or slow as needed. They will not overcharge. The charging systems of phones have their own regulation. Not sure where previous poster got his info. Guess his phone still uses NiCads.
Yet to see an extended battery for The Inspire with the custom cover. There is a battery pack that attaches to the back of the phone but I can't remember the make. There was big talk when they were released but I hear little about them now.

that i read , is not good to let the battery over charge , that has happened to me, i have let it over charge overnight , after that the battery life gets reduce, i have an app call current monitor , after the battery reach 4.209 V . if i let sit there charging, the voltage starts to go down . ( maybe is the app)
with a 3 hour charge , i get about a day use out of the cell phone . letting the battery died the first three time you put it in the phone , i was told by th rep of the company that sold me the item , like i said before i get pretty good battery life , even with heavy use , now that temple run is in android . even more fun ..
Not that its a huge improvement over 1850 but the best I've seen for the inspire are 2000mAh, I just kept searching on ebay in 100 mAh increments until I got no results.

Be extra careful were you buy your extended life batteries from.. i ordered two and got what i paid for... they were 1850mAh which did last about 4 hours longer then the original but which one my camera didnt work... Said something to the tune of "Cannot use flash in cold weather conditions"... When i saw this for the first time i was like WTF its 80 degrees outside... then i changed batteries again and it worked... obviously something wrong in the battery.
It i probably worth spending a little more money on the battery to get better quality product.
saw this on ebay...2450mah
highest capacity ever for the HTC DESIRE HD or INSPIRE 4G
you can search on ebay for HTC DESIRE HD 2450mah...

According to the DHD community the Mugen is the only trustworthy one, and that's at around 1650mah. The ones you see online are rarely what they claim to be.
1800 Andida good
Basically Mugen and Anker are the only good extended batteries it seems, and even then they don't seem to help much. D: I still wanna pick up an extra battery just in case for long trips, etc.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/2450MAH-Hig..._Cell_Phone_PDA_Batteries&hash=item3a769ad5b7
It a 2450MAH High Capacity Japanese Battery and it only $6! I was wondering if anyone have tried this and should I buy this? I was gonna buy an anker but after looking at some battery on ebay found this. There are also 2 of these plus a charger for only $10! Way cheaper than the anker...

It has been proven many times that the 2450mah claim for this battery is extremely exaggerated.
If a battery manufacturer will lie (quite a large lie) about the specs, then I would also highly doubt the quality & longevity of it.
Also, I really doubt they are made in Japan.
So NO, go and buy an Anker in other words, they are by far the best.

Ok thanks. One more thing, does the charger that is included with the anker have usb? Just one anker battery cost $17 and 2 anker plus a charger cost $30. I'm only gonna need one battery but looking at my charger which is a bit ripped I want another charger just to be safe. So was wondering if the anker charger included in the pack of 2 battery has usb plug like the stock charger.

Well the charger I got from Anker has a micro-usb connection input (female), but there is nothing else supplied. So you need another HTC charger (or similar) to power it up.
Anker or Mugen power.
I personaly bought the Mugen power (1950 Mah ) and I'm very happy with it's performance.
It's true that it's more expensive that the Anker batery but it had some better argumented reviews at the time I was searching plus the thermometer (I like to know if and whae the battery gets warmer).
As you can see to this link he sells thousands batteries. I bought too "gold" batteries for friends. They didn't said me something bad. For me i afraid to take something like that. Maybe go to Anker battery at future
Getting my gold batteries this week... Anker sucks

are you sure?
gold battery is cheaper than anker
I was using gold battery on my HTC DHD it worked really good for more than a year after that it started to drain faster but anyway it was better than original battery (talking about lasting time)
now I'm using 2650mha gold battery on my HTC sensation got it delivered today will see how it goes.

ok after all this time using gold battery from ebay I can confirm it works fine. I'm still putting my phone on charge every evening but I'm just used to doing that. phone can last three day on moderate usage no gaming just phone calls, texting, some browsing and so on. much better than original battery. from my experience with two different HTC phones with the same kind of cheap gold battery I can confirm it works fine and is high quality.

Saying that it is high quality seems a little like exaggeration.
But I guess it works somewhat OK.
I don't think it is gonna last long though.

i used my HTC DHD for over a year with gold battery, then gave it to my brother and he is now using this phone around a year long with same battery what he says that the phone lasts at least two days for him. and two days is still longer than I was getting with my HTC DHD with brand new original battery. so think what you want but honestly see no point in buying quite expensive anker battery or what ever else you guys are using.

i got 2 anker batteries and a wall charger for £13 off eBay and they have done me quite well. i use one during the day and then (7am - 5pm) and then i have my other one charging ready for me to just pop into my phone. so I'm never out of power. i also have one of the 2450mah ones and i see the anker lasts at least 3 hours longer.
